NET Network Exploration Ltd (delisted)

VANCOUVER, July 17, 2012 /CNW/ - Network Exploration Ltd. (the "Company") is pleased to announce that a Community Agreement  (the "Agreement") has been signed with the authorities from the Fundición and Jesus Maria communities in Peru's Moquegua District for further exploration at its flagship Picha project. The agreement, which is a critical part of the permitting process and required by Peru's Ministry of Energy and Mines, allows for commencement of the Company's planned diamond drilling. Alexander Helmel, CEO of Network Exploration Ltd. states, "Through the combined efforts of our project partner Lara Exploration Ltd. ("Lara") and our local geological team we have been able to form a solid relationship with the local communities.  We are committed to developing our projects in a sustainable and responsible way while working closely with the people in the nearby areas.  We extend our thanks to the efforts of Lara, the people of Fundición and Jesus Maria communities, and Network's crew on the ground in Peru." The Picha Project The 6,000 hectare Picha copper-silver property is located within the Tertiary volcanic arc of southern Peru, host to a wide variety of epithermal gold, silver and copper porphyry-skarn deposits that are the targets of many major and junior exploration companies. Picha is situated approximately 122km east of the city of Arequipa and approximately 12km NE of Goldfield's 7.6M oz Au/Ag Chucapaca deposit. Due to its favorable location, geology and existing mineralized showings, the Company believes that this property has the potential to yield significant mineralization. Preliminary exploration work at the Picha project found widespread alteration, brecciation and vein stockworking indicative of the presence of a nearby porphyry system. Recent geochemical programs covering over 50 square km of the property have outlined seven zones with anomalous copper and silver values, several of which are associated with known mineralized showings that have been mined on a small scale in the past. Also, recent induced polarization and magnetic surveys have outlined six separate chargeability anomalies, interpreted to be indicative of sulphide mineralization that are contained within a broader area of moderate chargeability and higher magnetic response thought to be hosted in volcanic or intrusive rocks. Thirteen priority drill targets have thus been outlined from the combined geochemical and geophysical programs mentioned above, and the Company intends to commence drilling select targets within the Moquegua District as soon as possible.
